OPTYSIL is a liquid immune stimulant, which activates natural immune systems of plants and stimulates their growth and development. It contains silicon which is easily absorbed by plants, strengthening cell walls and stimulating numerous vital processes in the plant.
OPTYSIL is recommended for foliar application in the cultivation of all types of agricultural and horticultural crops. It may be also used during irrigation (fertigation, watering).
The neutral pH of the preparation ensures its compatibility with commonly used foliar fertilizers and plant protection products.
It is important to use OPTYSIL prophylactically – before stressful conditions appear.
The most important benefits of using OPTYSIL stimulant include:
OPTYSIL as an immunity stimulant is one of the main elements of the strategy to support the natural resistance of plants STRESS CONTROL SYSTEM (SCS).
OPTYSIL may be used in different fertilisation techniques, including foliar sprays, fertigation, watering.
